This will help to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. Remove all packaging materials from your appliance. Install according to instructions. See page 5-9 to insure proper installation and servicing. Be sure to have a qualified service technician install and ground this appliance. Plug into rated outlet: 120 Volts AC, 5 Amp min., 15 Amp maximum circuit requirement. Preheating Instructions The Warming Drawer is designed to keep cooked foods warm for extended periods of time. The drawer must be pre-heated before use on high (see Use and Care Guide). If the warming drawer isn’t pre-heated, the internal temperature of the food being warmed could fall below the minimum safe level and bacteria could develop. Always preheat the drawer according to the instructions described in the Operating Instructions (page 11). Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where appliances are in use. They should never be allowed to turn knobs, push buttons, sit or stand on any part of an appliance. Children in walkers, or children crawling can be attracted to the door handle and may grab and open the warming drawer. This can result in injury from the door being pulled open on a child, or severe burns if it is in use and hot. WARNING: Do not store items of interest to children in, above or around any appliance. Children could be seriously injured if they should climb onto the appliance to reach these items. Be certain to use only dry pot holders: Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders. Never store anything in the warming drawer. Flammable materials can catch fire, plastic items may melt or ignite and other types of items could be ruined. Do not hang articles from any part of the appliance or place anything against the drawer. Some fabrics are quite flammable and could catch on fire. For safety reasons and to avoid damage to the appliance, never sit, stand, or lean on the warming drawer door. For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while using this appliance. Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the warming drawer. Using a foil liner could result in a fire hazard, or the obstruction of the flow of heat and ventilation air. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat will be trapped underneath it. This trapped heat can upset the performance of the warming drawer parts. WARNING: Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable items in or around unit. US CA 4 Safety practices and precautions WARNING: This appliance is designed for warming food. Based on safety considerations, never use the warming drawer to warm or heat a room. As with any cooking or heating appliance, never leave the warming drawer unattended when warming food, this could be a fire hazard. Only certain types of glass, heat proof glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthenware or glazes are suitable for use in this warming drawer. Utensils that are not thermally heat safe may break with sudden temperature changes. Never heat unopened containers, a build up of pressure may cause the container to burst. Grease is flammable, avoid letting grease deposits collect in the warming drawer, clean up spillage. 120 Volts AC, 5 Amp min., 15 Amp maximum circuit requirement. DO NOT use water on grease fires. Turn OFF the warming drawer, then smother the fire with a dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher. When opening the drawer while keeping sauces warm, tomato sauce, etc., the drawer must be opened slowly to avoid spillage. Use care when opening a hot warming drawer; to avoid severe burns, open slowly, allow the hot air or steam to escape before reaching in to remove or replace any foods. Do not repair or replace any part of this appliance unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified Service Technician. Service Technicians must disconnect the power supply before servicing this appliance. When using the warming drawer: DO NOT TOUCH THE INTERIOR SURFACES or the exterior area immediately surrounding the door until it has had sufficient time to cool to avoid burn injuries. Clean the warming drawer with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the appliance while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner manufacturer. Be sure all the controls are turned off and the appliance is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode. Do not touch the heating element or interior surfaces of the warming drawer, even if they appear dark in color. They may still be hot enough to cause burn injury. Allow sufficient time to cool.

Flathead screw Torx screws Flathead screw Fig. 16 US CA 12 Operating Instructions Operational guide The Warming Drawer is designed to keep previously cooked foods at a safe, warm temperature, for extended periods of time, when operated correctly. It is not designed to cook or reheat food. The Warming Drawer should be pre-heated according to the chart below prior to inserting the food to be warmed. Food may be kept up to two hours in the warming drawer. Failure to pre-heat could result in unsafe food temperatures, Fig. 17 which could accelerate the formation of bacteria in the food being kept warm. The dial on the top right corner of the unit is the on/off and temperature control adjustment. When the dial is turned clockwise from the off position to the proof position, the unit will maintain a temperature of approximately 100°F. By rotating the dial clockwise to the high position, the drawer will reach a temperature of approximately 250°F. To Use: Turn the thermostat dial to a temperature setting; H–High M–Medium L– Low P–Proofing If you will be using the tray, preheat it while preheating the warming drawer. Preheat any empty serving dishes to be used, while preheating the drawer. Add cooked, hot food in its cooking container or heat-safe container. Aluminum foil may be used to cover food containers. Caution Do not use plastic containers or plastic wrap. They can melt if in direct contact with the drawer or a hot utensil and if these items melt, they may adhere to the drawer and may be unremovable. Use only heatsafe dishes. Preheat time and temperature selector: Proofing..... Do not preheat Low.............. Preheat 10 min. Medium .... Preheat 15 min. High............ Preheat 20 min. 90°-110° 140°-170° 170°-200° 200°-250° Always preheat on high, then turn the knob to the desired setting. To keep several different foods hot together, set the temperature to the food needing the highest setting. Place items needing highest setting on the bottom of the drawer and food needing less heat on the tray. Proofing Yeast Dough Place dough in a greased jelly roll or half sheet pan or oiled bowl, no taller than five inches in height. Turn dough over to grease all areas of the dough, cover with a damp clean cloth. Place in the center of warming drawer and turn the control knob to proofing (P). Check at 45 minutes to one hour. Dough should double in size. Shape dough, place in baking pan, and put in warming drawer for second rising, about 30 to 45 minutes; add extra time if needed. Care and maintenance 13 US CA Cleaning the warming drawer Be careful cleaning any part of this appliance, particularly the drawer box and back of the drawer face. All parts of the drawer can be cleaned with a hot soapy damp cloth, rinsed, dried and buffed with a heavy pile cloth. Always try this first, as it is the mildest cleaning procedure. Be sure the Warming Drawer is turned off and the appliance is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode. Use the mildest cleaning procedure first. Some brands of cleaners are harsher than others, read their directions. Try on a small area first. To avoid marring the surface always rub the metal finishes in the direction of the polish grain lines. The cleaner will be more effective when used in the direction of the polish lines. Use only clean sponges, soft cloths, paper towels, plastic or non-metal soap pads for cleaning or scouring, as recommended in this section. (Caution: some soap pads can scratch). Be sure to rinse all parts thoroughly and to wipe dry to avoid water marks. Remove food particles after every use. 1. Drawer: Clean the drawer with warm soapy damp sponge or cloth. 2. Drawer Front: Shine with stainless steel cleaner in direction of grain. Clean glass with glass cleaner. 3. Gasket: Clean with with hot water only. Do not rub. Press a dry towel on the gasket to dry. Do not remove or damage the mesh. 4. Knobs: The on/off temperature knob may be removed to be cleaned. The moist/crisp knob, however, should never be removed. Be aware that the pull off force of the knobs will decrease and a loose knob could become a choking hazard for small children. 5. Light: Clean with damp cloth or sponge. 6. Element: Care should be taken when cleaning the heating element. Only clean the element when the unit is cool. Use warm soapy water on damp cloth. 7. Stainless Steel tray: Can be removed and cleaned with hot soapy water at sink.
